Estimation for network snowball sampling: Preventing pandemics

Steve Thompson

Snowball designs are the most natural of the network sampling designs. They have many desirable properties for sampling hidden and hard-to reach populations. They have been under-u…

New estimates for network sampling

Steve Thompson

Network sampling is used around the world for surveys of vulnerable, hard-to-reach populations including people at risk for HIV, opioid misuse, and emerging epidemics. The sampling…

Design-adherent estimators for network surveys

Steve Thompson

Network surveys of key populations at risk for HIV are an essential part of the effort to understand how the epidemic spreads and how it can be prevented. Estimation of population…

Simple estimators for network sampling

Steve Thompson

A new estimation method is presented for network sampling designs, including Respondent Driven Sampling (RDS) and Snowball (SB) sampling. These types of link-tracing designs are es…

Network Inference from a Link-Traced Sample using Approximate Bayesian Computation

Jack Davis, Steven K. Thompson

We present a new inference method based on approximate Bayesian computation for estimating parameters governing an entire network based on link-traced samples of that network. To d…

Fast Moving Sampling Designs in Temporal Networks

Steven K. Thompson

In a study related to this one I set up a temporal network simulation environment for evaluating network intervention strategies. A network intervention strategy consists of a samp…
